“It’s been a long time coming, but federal approval for congestion pricing will provide a seismic shift in our ability to better fund mass transit and shift New Yorkers from their cars into an improved regional transportation network,” said New York Building Congress President & CEO Carlo A. Scissura, Esq. “The $15 billion we will see invested in MTA capital programs will help us avoid a predicted ‘death spiral,’ and instead see New York finally build out the world-class, resilient, and accessible-to-all transit system we’ve long deserved.”
